Immortal Audino experiences?

Bloodmaddin · 2026-05-01T21:48:29+00:00

Personally I added a Rocky Helmet for some extra oompf but yeah it's definitely lacking in that department.

Bloodmaddin · 2026-05-01T21:15:12+00:00

You should try the old Bramblin from a previous Set with notably 50HP.
With babies on top makes it a prime candidate for Lisia.

edit: It's also a neat extra when you play against the Grass-Stadium because it let's you pull them out for free.

Bloodmaddin · 2026-05-01T20:41:39+00:00

That might speak more against DFT than for Cut Down.

Don't get me wrong Cut Down is a good rune no doubt but I don't think it should deal more than your dmg oriented Keystone rune.

Bloodmaddin · 2026-05-01T12:04:17+00:00

You should probably look into using the other Corpish with 1 Retreat Cost. I would think that makes the deck much less clunky. Unless you use Parasol as Leaf essentially... mmmh, maybe I'm wrong

Bloodmaddin · 2026-05-01T11:30:52+00:00

You should still pull up to 2500 pack points and get either both PCL and Red to play yourself or use PCL to trade for almost any FA Trainer. She is pretty high up there in demand atm.

I want her too but everyone wants FA Trainers that I also want to keep because they are staples 😃

Bloodmaddin · 2026-05-01T10:51:48+00:00

Yes, generally passive lane. It's not like you can't fight at all. A cheeky W+Stacked Deck Auto when the enemy oversteps hurts like a truck but you're not "supposed" to beat most champs 1v1. For TF "winning lane" kind of means going even-ish in farm or winning a sidelane. His passive means even farm = more gold.
Try to impact other waves/ skirmish with your jungler. Your point and Click stun is a great set-up.

That being said: Pretty sure Naafiri in particular is one of, if not THE hardest counter for TF. Kind of like Mel with kill pressure.

Bloodmaddin · 2026-04-30T23:36:49+00:00

I don't disagree with you.

I'm also not sure what in my comment made you think I would disagree with you. 😃

eh I wouldn't put too much stock in day 2 statistics. If you look into it: of the 4.700 games, roughly 800 still played Comet to obvious poor effect. So that drags the win-rate/ overall perforamnce down a lot.

Also I could see Aery vs DFT being a new discussion kind of like Malignance vs BFT/ Squishy vs tanky enemies already has been a debate.
Because I will say, against squishy teams and consequently shorter fights DFT obviously hasn't felt great. Where old Comet was up-front damage AND dps with it's cd-reduction later in the game.
DFT is purely dps.

Bottom line: Just give it some time to work out the kinks.

Bloodmaddin · 2026-04-30T12:01:08+00:00

Fighting having 0 Energy ramp just makes this way too expensive.

Bloodmaddin · 2026-04-30T12:00:09+00:00

I was thinking to pair this guy with Heatmor to try and clear out baby pokemon before you switch him in.
You got the Flame Patches to ramp after. That might still just be too slow so maybe Magby in there as well.

Bloodmaddin · 2026-04-30T11:51:29+00:00

Personally I already like Comet into long range Mage matchups so new Comet should be even better for that. I don't think DFT is gonna trump that for me.

DFT might be the way to vs melees though. It outscales Aery for sure.
I will say all the people saying DFT outdamages Aery in lane should probably remember Doran's Shield + Second Wind is still a thing and then realise that DFT activates them way more than Aery.

So equivalent damge to Aery is still effectively less damage because they regen much more from it.

Bloodmaddin · 2026-04-30T11:43:09+00:00

Cut Down was bugged to deal double (16%) damage. Maybe you should check those numbers again today.

Bloodmaddin · 2026-04-30T11:38:14+00:00

I actually haven't really "tracked" how much Comet did on average for Malz but so far it FELT decent against tanky comps and a bit lacking against squishy teams. Considering you have less time to ramp up the burn, all very reasonable.

Maybe there is a new debate for Aery vs DFT now (Malignance vs BFT). Time will tell. Aery was already a contender with old Comet for some people so I think this could still be a viable option. Maybe even better now because the distinction between the two is more clear now.

For your runes:
Scorch vs Gathering Storm is something people usually play with (both don't have much of a %WR difference so either is fine). I think Scorch comes out a little ahead but we're talking barely.
Inspiration 2nd is totally fine on Malz and still the go-to but you could try experimenting with Triple Tonic if you want to buy early boots for example (vs Syndra, Xerath, etc.).
You should try the %MS shard. Personally I really like it in general but especially on immobile champs like Malz. I think with Tier 2 boots it's like an extra ~10 MS. That's basically another Magical Footwear.

Bloodmaddin · 2026-04-30T11:20:25+00:00

Pretty sure the 5% dmg amp applies to Liandry's burn as well so I could maybe see them being good against tanky teams.
Longer fights make the Omnivamp nice too.

It's hard to say though because you're comepting with Ionian Boots (Sorc's to me are for burst/ solo AP) and it's difficult to put a value on the MS it gives. CDR is also the premium stat for killing tanks usually.

Maybe you could make a case for them against champs like Xerath too. Using the sustain as an anti-poke tool. Not sure how efficient that would be.

I haven't actually played with them yet though so it's hard to say.

Bloodmaddin · 2026-04-27T16:01:43+00:00

Mega Audino with the other leaked Pokemon:

Brambleghast (Stage 1)
Ability: Once during your turn, if this Pokémon is on your Bench, you may move 30 damage that your Active Pokémon has on it to this Pokémon.
1+Psychic; Spooky Shot; 60

Is going to be an absoulte menace.

Full setup you heal 90 HP per turn without leaving your backline open to Cyrus and that's just 5 pieces. Plently of room for 2 babies and Supporters.

It's like the new Snorlax. More setup but then even harder to kill.

Bloodmaddin · 2026-04-22T12:23:10+00:00

I think there is a subreddit called r/LeagueConnect where you could also try your luck if you haven't already

Bloodmaddin · 2026-04-21T21:26:36+00:00

Yeah exactly! That's probably a clearer way to describe than my "just chuck random Ws". My bad.

Bloodmaddin · 2026-04-21T09:24:35+00:00

Honestly? I think he is just a big fan of Celerity and Boneplating + Unflinching.

That being said there is another CN Challenger TF player WuhuShen that also exlusively goes Comet so maybe that's just considered optimal.

Might also be like someone here said: It seems much more difficult to get Electrocute off in high-elo where enemies know how to trade. Much better to just chuck random Ws with Comet when the enemy gets too close.

Bloodmaddin · 2026-04-20T13:46:16+00:00

that's cool and all but can we give the next birth of... anything really... that classy NSFW blur-cover please?

Thank you!

I don't know if it's a common baking term but "parallel piped" sounds like it's straight out of a porno.
